Stevens Hall

Famous quotes containing the words stevens and/or hall:

    The wind attendant on the solstices
    Blows on the shutters of the metropoles,
    Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls
    The trand ideas of the villages.
    The malady of the quotidian. . . .
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    This is a Senate of equals, of men of individual honor and personal character, and of absolute independence. We know no masters, we acknowledge no dictators. This is a hall for mutual consultation and discussion; not an arena for the exhibition of champions.
    Daniel Webster (1782–1852)
